Re:Show HN: A coding style proposal for JavaScript ES6

It is true. It only improves this aspect when adding elements to the end of objects.
But the real advantage I felt was punctuation confusion reduction when having mixed object definitions and callbacks.

I have been using this format with deeply nested objects and found readability to be improved. How does it kill readability ? Could you provide an example ?

Ask HN: Help me revamp Zena UI (Open source Rails CMS)
Context:Zena (http://zenadmin.org) is arriving at maturity after more then 5 years of development. It's a very powerful MIT licensed Ruby on Rails CMS with lots of advanced features to create websites and applications.I am the author of Zena and related gems (RubyLess, Property, Versions, QueryBuilder, etc).You:If you have some good UI skills and feel like creating some "Zen" design, you could...
Re:Nuclear Power is Safest Way to Make Electricity

I don't believe reprocessing means "no waste" but anyway, that's just half of the problem: what will we do in 50 years ?
And how do you reprocess the lives of the 200'000 people who had to leave after the nuclear accident in Tchernobyl alone ? Tell the fishermen by Fukushima to go reprocess their lives because some over-confident engineers thought they mastered what they were doing.
Nuclear power is just like the "green revolution": pure megalomania by people too afraid to consider alternatives like... a less power greedy way of living.

You guys keep amazing me. Do you forget that nuclear plants produce tons of waste that has to be kept far away from any life form for thousands of years ? Do you know any written language or sign or whatever that is 10'000 years old and which human people can understand and use cautiously ?
Nuclear waste is going to be the worst legacy we give to our children and grandchildren. They will hate us for this.
And, even if the waste is going to give trouble (and to cost) people in the future, these same people handling our radioactive waste won't have any fuel left:
Toxic waste is forever, fuel is for 50 years. Doesn't that look dumb to you ?

Let's remove all this karma/reputation/friend_count *beep*
The whole concept of karma is really painful and not only in the context of HN. It's like the GDP, it says absolutely nothing valuable about a country. In a place where people are healthy, food is good and grown locally, the GDP would inherently be lower then in a country spending billions after a nuclear melt down.For those considering reputation/karma as an indicator of aptitude, I think I'm...

The NBL is not going to be Javascript but Lua. It's got some of the same architectural strengths as Javascript (functions are first class citizens, closures, good scoping), it's very fast (LuaJIT), integrates well in any environment and is highly customizable.

Applying these engineering forces to build a huge "casino winning" software is a waste. What happens if it works ? We have the over-super-rich who can build and maintain such machines that get richer and the rest of us with debts and taxes. I hope such experiments accelerate towards a Tobin tax: fast speculative machines (nanotrading) will just die away and we will get back to "investment" based trading not casino.
Help me make a proposal for RailsConf 2011
Hi there, I am the author of Zena http://zenadmin.org (yes, I need to update the website: it's ugly).Although the website does not really show it, it's one of the most advanced CMS tools out there. Since the Zena framework is so large, I'd like to know if I should propose a talk for RailsConf 2011 on one of the parts or just a presentation of the whole (like creating a web app from xhtml...
Re:Qt Quick, create Qt apps with Javascript

You need the QML runtime (http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qmlruntime.html) which you can embed in any Qt C++ app or deploy on mobile devices. The idea is that you code the app in C++ and code the user experience with this language, writing bindings to your models on the way.

Install Qt 4.7, download Qt Creator 2.1 (http://qt.nokia.com/developer/qt-qtcreator-prerelease/) and follow the tutorial (http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtcreator-2.1-snapshot/creator-qml-a...), it's really a great tool.
